Congratulations Si!
A well deserved recipient. 44 years in and still keen as mustard! He's been a great colleague, mentor and friend along the way in my fire service career.

Once the scene was safe we made sure the coach was safe for the crews to work in. All internal services were isolated in the building. The injured casualty was transported by ambulance. At the incident we were assisted by @FireHodnet @SFRS_Wellington @OFFICIALWMAS @WMerciaPolice

[Whitchurch Fire Station @Whitchurch_SFRS]

Yesterday we were 📟 by @SFRS_Control to an RTC coach into building at Coton, Whitchurch.
On our arrival the driver was still in the coach and required us to carry out casualty care. With the risk of the building collapsing crews tried to make the scene safe.

[Whitchurch Fire Station @Whitchurch_SFRS]

Yesterday we were 📟 by @SFRS_Control to assist @NW_Fire_Control @CheshireFire @CreweFireStn to RTC person's trapped at Bickley Moss. We were first in attendance and discovered no one was trapped. We administered casualty care to the drivers, made the scene and cars safe. #oncall

Not my video, but passed to me by a former @LondonFire colleague. A house fire in East London a couple of weeks ago caused by an e-scooter lithium battery. The burning batteries 'flaring' causes overpressure which looks like mini-backdraughts!!!

Another two weeks spent at @FSCmoreton. This time on my BAi course. Great course and tuition by very knowledgeable instructors. Looking forward to utilising my newly acquired skills @shropsfire @FrsShrop

Last night we attended @FrsShrop for a CFBT session. This was a great session for the crew which gave us great exposure on fire development and conditions in the compartment. Thank you to the training department for their insight, knowledge and time.
